I believe Fadbai should be added to the list of Fadjur sons who have sired

national winners. His daughter Suedalefadcrystal was 1981 USNC Race Mare,

and his daughter Fadbai Black Fire was 3rd in the US in 1983.

I own both of these mares and am very proud of their accomplishments. I am

only more proud of what their foals have done. Each has produced a

nationally ranked, multiple stakes winning daughter. And you will not be

surprised to know that Black Fire's daughter looks so much like Fadjur (her

great grand sire) that I was shocked when I first saw his pictures. Her

name is Fadbai Princess, she won 9 of 10 races, including 6 stakes, and she

set 2 track records. Her second and third sons, by different stallions,

both look just like mom.

I own five daughters and a son of Fadbai, and base all my breeding on them.

They are all stakes winners or stakes placed if they raced, and every one

who has sent a foal to the track has a winner!!!!!

Two Fadbai daughters and two granddaughters won the Michigan Oaks. They

are the winningest Michigan Arabian family on the track. One of them,

WINDICTIVE (*WIKING x Suedalefadcrystal), came to California two years ago,

after a 20 month layoff. She won the $30,000 NF PROOF sprint at Los

Alamitos! The second place mare was the leading older mare in the US at

that time. Most people credit the sire, but fail to see the simple fact

that WINDICTIVE runs just like her record setting dam. WIRE TO WIRE. Her

sire, on the other hand, is known to come from way off the pace when he wins.

FADBAI PRINCESS (*WIKING x FADBAI BLACK FIRE) runs the same way. WIRE TO

WIRE. Just like her dam, and again, unlike her sire. SHE is the only

arabian to ever win 5 stakes races in a single month. In the process, she

set 2 track records, traveled from Michigan to Minnesota and back, and

outran the leading 4 yr old mare (WIDANIA) in the US, the leading older mare

(JUANS KARITA KU) in the US, and the 3rd leading older mare in the US

(SAMANTHA DAHLING). Not bad for a THREE YEAR OLD!!!

You can see why I am so proud of my Fadbai horses, and why I am concerned

that Fadbai get the recognition he should have.

Thanks

You might find the photographs of Fadbai's get and grandget interesting,

because of the striking family look. That of Fadbai's sire Fadjur.

Do you know of other Fadjur bred horses who race? I figure if anyone

knows, you would. When I do pedigree research, I like to include

significant horses of the same breeding.
